Examples

This example shows one way to test if a filename is already contained within a zip archive.

CopyC#

String zipFileToRead= "PackedDocuments.zip";
string candidate = "DatedMaterial.xps";
using (ZipFile zip = new ZipFile(zipFileToRead))
{
  if (zip.EntryFilenames.Contains(candidate))
    Console.WriteLine("The file '{0}' exists in the zip archive '{1}'",
                      candidate,
                      zipFileName);
  else
    Console.WriteLine("The file, '{0}', does not exist in the zip archive '{1}'",
                      candidate,
                      zipFileName);
  Console.WriteLine();
}

CopyVB.NET

Dim zipFileToRead As String = "PackedDocuments.zip"
Dim candidate As String = "DatedMaterial.xps"
Using zip As ZipFile.Read(ZipFileToRead)
    If zip.EntryFilenames.Contains(candidate) Then
        Console.WriteLine("The file '{0}' exists in the zip archive '{1}'", _
                    candidate, _
                    zipFileName)
    Else
      Console.WriteLine("The file, '{0}', does not exist in the zip archive '{1}'", _
                    candidate, _
                    zipFileName)
    End If
    Console.WriteLine
End Using
